Don Cherry on the Toronto Maple Leafs signing of Matt Martin:
“Matt Martin will be the most popular Leaf next year guaranteed! The toughest guy in the League and he can play. You can put him on the last minute of the game or you can put him on in overtime. He does not take foolish penalties, knows when to go and will always be there at your back. Nobody will push around all the sweethearts on the Leafs this year. He’s from Windsor, Ontario played 4 years for the Sarnia Sting.
I know nobody thinks this is much of a signing now, but believe me this is one of the most important signings of the day.
